My guess is that what he meant was your #1 priority as a producer is to make an instrumental for the artist, not for yourself because you think it sounds cool. He's right about the service industry bit, that's really the job of a music producer. What he isn't right about is that this is no art form, which is so wrong because the production process employs a lot of artistic procedures (even the act of imagining a vibe and then implementing it on a track), many techniques being used by the artist as well.

@Techno Assassin Yeah good luck with that. At this point their chips are about as powerful as the ARM chip in the low-power Surface X... The first computers will be the entry level MacBook. Last will be the Mac Pro. And yet in the PC space you have Intel and AMD fighting hard, pushing the boundaries of CPU technology. AMD's laptop silicon is already ahead of Intel's, and Intel is ahead of Apple's A series chips (by a large margin.) So let's be realistic. It will be a few years towards the end of the transition when anyone who wants to do SERIOUS work, will use an ARM-based Mac.

I also have an AMD 16 core Ryzen 3950x (4.3GHz all cores) with 32GB of 3600MHz DDR4 RAM. To get anything that touches it you would have to spend 1200USD on the CPU alone.

Compare that to the Ryzen 4900HS in the ASUS Zephyrus 14, a 35w part that gets hot (up to 90c) and outperforms practically ever current Intel laptop part even in thicker, better cooled laptops. I don't blame Apple for abandoning Intel. Regarding the storage argument, well yeah, 8TB, Apple wins that one. I prefer to use Thunderbolt external drives that way if anything dies, its all on external. Apples laptops are infamously hard to recover data from if the board dies.

@eman0828 4 жыл бұрын
Too many people get this idea that you have to have some fame to be a Producer, Songwriter or Engineer. I will tell you one thing, fame is not even a requirement to being a Producer. Most Producers are rarely in the spotlight as they are behind the scenes. It takes a great song to gain respect and recognition but fame is not important. Quincy Jones once said he he would never do music for fame or money.

Producers are most definitely *NOT* an Artist. They work behind the scenes that's rarely ever in the spot light. Recording Artists hires them for their services to produce a song. Like Quincy Jones, the Producer helps an Artist tell a story and help realize their vision, take a raw concept and turn it into reality as a finished product. They are like the director in the studio and the architect of making a record.

It really doesn't matter what DAW you use as they all essentially do the same thing and "sonically" there is no difference is sound quality. It's really a user preference. *Sorry Not Sorry* was actually still mixed in Pro-Tools by a *Mix Engineer* in a separate studio as Oak is Not a Mix Engineer, he's a Record Producer. His main job is to bring everything togther as the finished product. Some times its normal for a Producer to start the mix process if they have the skill level to have an idea for the song and then and pass the session on to a *Mix Engineer* to handle the rest from there. I'm a PC guy running Presonus Studio Pro. I program beats and track all vocals in studio one in my "own" studio Some times I may go to another studio and not touch a DAW period and oversee the recording process in the studio with the Artist working along side a Pro-Tools Engineer as I don't always where the Engineers hat all the time. Rodney Darkchild Jerkins has his own Pro-Tools Engineer when it comes to cutting vocals as he's not an Engineer. Rodney uses Logic to program beats with and works with his Pro-Tools Engineer directing behind the mixing board trying to get good vocals out an Artist during the Vocal Production process.

@@jakecameron1360 Sounds like you are being a little bias as not everyone uses a Mac. There is no such thing as the best DAW. Its what ever works best for "You". That's acutally the other way around as the creators of studio one pretty much created the single window work flow back in the early 2000s that eveyone is trying to copy. I've acutally used studio one long before it was called Studio One. It was a project started by Kristal Audio back in 2004 by former Steinberg Developers. The oringal name of the DAW was called *Kristal Audio Engine* before it was sold Presonus that became Studio One. I was rocking Kristal Audio Engine back in 2007 but will still on Cakewalk Sonar at the time.

Fantastic video. Oak is probably one of the happiest persons on the earth. Being able to produce these kind of music / song for these type of artist, is a real blessings!!! It's great to see Oak use plugins, and they are the same plugins I have (and more) and the Raven, which I also have. Please make more tutorials Oak. Not necessary about mixing but more on producing!!

He did break down the entire production of the entire song. Oak is primary a Record Producer as he's clearly not a Mixing Engineer as the song was acutally mixed by *Manny Marroquin* in a separate Studio. Oak just knows some mixing enough to get it sound great before he passed the song off to a Mixing Engineer to finish the rest.

For those that are in deference with the statement "Producers are not Artist" It could be rephrased for better understanding "The Producer is not the Artist" We have to consider the context of the statement he made, in relationship to the producers role when working in the studio with an artist. Producers in general should not attempt to sit in the artist chair because there is only space for one energy or (body) in that chair. The producer has a totally different role and energy to keep in mind. He is not saying producer's can't be artist, he is saying when the artist is in the studio the producer's role becomes that of a coach that is responsible for getting the best out of the artist's performance while overseeing the quality of the final product. This guy is Awesome and his production intellect is through the roof!

This was a candid look at the process for a top quality production. Most others I’ve seen are a commercial for plug-ins with no explanation as to the rationale for production choices. Fantastic video. Thanks to all involved. I especially liked how all audio tracks were in default blue and midi instruments were in default green.

Oak and Demi vibe so well together! It’s honestly pure magic to see are their two minds come together to create such a powerful record. Demi’s superhuman vocals and Oak’s spiced knowledge in producing is something of pure genius. Oak does so well with helping artists create and emulate their sound to stay as genuine and authentic to them as possible.

Never underestimate that this guy probably put most of his time and energy into his profession, he wasn't born with it. If you allow yourself to believe that this level of mastery is basically just effort times times passion times time than you flatten your grounds to do the same.

Thank you Oak for sharing. This was one of the most enjoyable, clear, concise and educational video I have ever watched. The thought behind the whole vision of the song, production techniques, the why's, do's and dont's, is so helpful. One of the most useful tips that Oak shared with us, is right at the end, and the thought about when to use, or not, reverb; always think who is "performing" in front you, even if you can not see them when mixing, but visualising allows one to think in reality and not virtual world to make choices about use of plugins. Keep up the great work Oak and best of luck with future records!!

I stop using the slate plugins in my productions and now I think I may need to restart, very nice song/production breakdown video.

Well Digital Slate plugins doesn't just magically make your music sound great, its the skill level that you have. It doesn't even matter what peice of software you use. You just need a great ear, proper room acoustic treatment and some mixing skills to get a great mix.
